Postcode Database

Hi,

I want to design a database which I then want to use on a website were
users can search information by postcode. Example if they enter TW9
6LB then the database should bring up information regarding
hotels,restaurants,pubs,bars ect for that area. Any help on this as
I'm a novice in this and dont really know where to start.

Thanks you

Hi
Well, you'll have to start by paying for some postcode software or get
sued by someone. In the UK nothing is free!

You could look at http://www.upmystreet.com/ and see how they do it
